Chapter 4: City of the Sun

In this way, Adur joined the group and followed them back to the royal capital of Shurima, Nerema.

It is no exaggeration to say that this is a city that belongs to the gods, and every brick and tile of him can be described as the limit of human craftsmanship, because behind this city are star spirits.

It is difficult to shape such a magnificent city by manpower alone.

Not to mention the disk of the sun that has been hanging high in the sky for thousands of years, from which everything in Shurima originated, and eventually fell because of it.

But that's all for later, such a city will make people shine even in modern society, and Adur is no exception.

After a brief moment of surprise, the group slowly walked into the interior of the city, which looked far less spectacular than it looked as it did in general.

Houses of all sizes are piled up in a disorderly manner, and except for the four roads in the center, which are relatively empty, the rest of the buildings are very chaotic.

Walking inward along the central avenue, all the people around them made way for Adur and the others, and some of the people in tattered clothes would kneel down and wait for them to walk.

"Is this Shurima under slavery?"

Adur couldn't help but feel a little emotional, the city now gave him a feeling that was not as shocking as it was when he first saw it, and even made Adur feel quite backward.

Like a toilet bowl with gold trim, its corrupt and backward interior has always been a dusty stain on the city.

Soon, the crowd came to the periphery of the palace, which was separated from the surrounding disturbed city, and there was even an inner wall as a barrier.

Their destination, the Church of the Sun, is located near the inner wall.

Although it is a church, it is also the second largest building in Shurima Castle after the royal palace and the solar disk, and the hard sand and stone are condensed here, and the breath of the elements has become a place of faith in the hearts of Shurima people.

The sound of pushing open the door seemed to be gradually cut off from here, and the church had its own tranquility.

"Go back to your own lives, and I'll take him to see the archbishop."

Mute turned his head to Kashi and the others and said slowly.

Everyone nodded their heads and saluted, although Kashi still looked a little reluctant, but there was no place for her to speak until the results were down.

After all, the authority of the Shurima royal family is supreme, and even the patriarch of her family cannot question the authenticity of a Shurima royal bloodline, let alone get involved in such a taboo thing.

At Mutter's signal, Adur also handed over the calf he had captured to the soldiers on the side to put away for safekeeping.

The two then walked up the stairs together to the third floor.

The straight hallway leads straight to the room at the end, and this level seems to exist for it.

Pushing open the door, everyone in the room focused on Adur, who stared at him uncomfortably, as if he was naked and seen by everyone.

And Mutt just gave him a look of self-pity, and walked to the place that belonged to him.

"Kid, come closer, and let us take a good look at you."

An old man sitting a little further down in the middle of the hall was the first to speak, he looked amiable, his hair was gray, but he did not look old at all.

Adur walked slowly to the front of the steps, and as they watched Adur, he was also watching them.

The one sitting in the center was dressed in a yellow robe, and the cumbersome patterns made Adul a little dazzled.

But think about what Mutter said, this should be the person who observes him on behalf of the Shurima royal family, and the imperial power is above the ecclesiastical power, so the rank is respected.

He may have greeted the archbishop in private, but he represented the royal family when he sat here.

In fact, this is also the most interesting point in Shurima's upper relationship.

Shurima was secretly supported by the Twilight Star Spirit Maisha, and is considered a backhand left by the Twilight Star Spirit, but she deliberately faded from Shurima's history.

But the miracle creation she left behind, the Solar Disk, has provided Shurima with a steady stream of high-end combat power.

That is, the Ascended Warrior and the Celestial Warrior that Shurima is proud of.

With the power left behind by the Twilight Star Spirit Maisha, Shurima has become the largest empire on the road.

It's just that the demigods who are active in Freljord are too good, and the barren land is difficult for Shurima to be interested in, so after some consideration, this is the current situation.

The Church of the Sun was born out of the reverence of the people of Shurima for the Disc of the Sun and the worship of the Ascended.

However, the Twilight Star Spirit Maisha did not give this power to the Church, and the Ascended allegiance was to the generations of Shurima royalty, the Shurima Empire they loved.

This is the main reason why the clergy will bow to the imperial power.

It may also be because the church worships the solar disk, which is the sun itself, which is essentially similar to the Dawn Sect and the Moon Sect of the Giant God Peak, but it is very different.

That is, the Church of the Sun does not have their own gods, and it is the great Ascenders who protect them.

Whether it is Gana, which is believed in by the people of Zuan, or the most widespread belief in Valoran, the sheep god and the wolf god, they all appear in physical form.

But after all, this is Shurima, so the Church of the Sun is still the state religion and the highest church of Shurima, and its influence in the local area may be different.

……

"What's your name?"

"Adul."

"Poor child, where are your parents?"

……

"Don't you want to say it's because your mother is gone and you don't know who your father is? Don't be afraid of the poor child, then you tell us where you come from? ”

“……”

……

"If you don't want to talk about your sadness, it's okay, so can you pick something you can tell us?"

“……”

……

"Is there anything you want to tell us?"

"Well, I said I had amnesia, do you believe me? I really don't remember anything, I knew my name was Adul. ”

This time, it was the turn of the crowd on the stage to be silent, after all, Adur's answer was not helpful to them.

The royal family also couldn't sit still, frowned slightly and whispered to the archbishop.

"Are you sure this is a member of the royal family of Shurima?"

"Yes, Lord Sartre, the star spirit witnesses, the blood is the umbilicus, he is indeed the true Shurima who has fallen into the royal family, but I don't understand which bloodline it is."

The archbishop nodded and gave Asat an affirmative answer.

After repeatedly confirming that Adur's identity was correct, Asat finally affirmed Adur's identity with some helplessness.

"Well, welcome back, my poor boy, but you do dishonor the royal status of Reima.

It seems that you need to learn the proper etiquette and basic common sense, so as not to make mistakes in front of everyone and lose the face of our royal family.

I will arrange for you to have a etiquette instructor who will take care of your daily life and life for the next three months.

You will not be missing from the treatment you deserve every month, but you have to be careful, if your performance does not satisfy me after three months, I will deduct your due treatment, I hope you are not like Azir.

Oh yes, I just remembered when I mentioned Azir, you shouldn't be an adult at your age, right? You can also go to the Sun Academy tomorrow to study together, maybe you can get to know your cousin Azir, after all, it is quite troublesome for a royal family to have two strange things.

That's it, excuse me, archbishop, I still have things to deal with when I go back to the palace, and the specific settlement of this child will be troublesome to your church. ”
